Swear jar court

While consulting with a client yesterday, Clara heard me swear. From across the house, she shouted that I owed another 25 cents in her and Charlie’s self-imposed swear jar.

A little while later, I received this notice, informing me that my debt has reached $30. If I don’t pay off my debt in the next 48 hours, I would be taken to swear jar court.

Swear jar court?

Why would I ever pay off all those IOU’s in the jar when I can experience my children’s version of court instead.

I can’t wait.
